The bottled water processing market, in terms of value, is projected to reach $2,106.5 million by 2019, at a CAGR of around 5.5% from 2014. The technology involved for bottled water processing are reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, chlorination, bottle washing and filling. Reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration are membrane filtration technology used for purification. Filtration is a pressure-driven technology used for separating solids from fluids (liquids or gases) by interposing a medium through which only the fluid can pass. It is an important tool used in many water processing industries. Factors such as increasing health concerns and growing purity requirements in beverage sectors, and various technological advancements are driving the growth for the bottled water processing market. However, huge capital expenditures required for setting up new production facilities, restricting growth of the bottled water processing market during the forecast period.

Bottled water is classified into still water, flavored water, sparkling water, and others (including mineral water and spring water). The still water segment dominated the bottled water processing market, having contributed around 44.1% share in 2013. The still water segment gained a major share owing to its increasing consumption in the form of bulk formats. The bottled water processing market is highly fragmented with the key market players driving the growth with agreements, expansions, acquisitions, and new product launches that develop its position in the bottled water industry. The market is competitive with leading players being involved in the research & development of new processing equipment and its technology.
